Concordia University Reflective Facilitator Paper REFLECTIVE FACILITATOR PRACTICES

Now, it is your time to show your reflective side. As we learned this week, reflection includes looking through the lens of theoretical literature as well as our autographical experiences.

Select two questions from the following list and respond to them. Each of your responses should be at least two paragraphs. Include the question as a heading to separate your responses.

Some might argue that facilitating is too demanding to expect facilitators to be reflective about their work. What do you think?
What things do you do automatically in the classroom/training session without consciously thinking about them?
How have your past educational experiences influenced your understanding of yourself as a facilitator?
What are some of the key experiences in your life that have had an impact on your current ideas about facilitating and learning?
What is an example of an educational theory that you hold about facilitating and learning that is based on your own experiences as a learner?
What ideas about how children/adults learn are reflected in your school/organizational program?
What are the important values that underlie your approach to facilitating?
What acts to constrain your view of what is possible in facilitating?
What metaphor would you use to describe how you think about yourself as a facilitator?
How have you responded to evaluation in the past? Would you respond that way now?
What are the critical elements for you to perform at your best at work? What isn’t critical?
How might you create a “space” to reflect as a regular practice?

Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research.
